Day Of The Robot

I tried to ignore

My inner voice appalled

I silenced him with laughter

“He dies in this scene”

“We have to get it right”

“Step closer to the window”

“Now fall back”

“We’ve got you”

“If you’re unwilling we have your replacement”

“Miss Parker please!”

“You’re standing in my light!”

“Can you read these cue cards?!”

“We’re making a change”

“You’re walking out of frame!”

“Step closer to the window”

“Now exit”

“They’ll love you”

Running in the rainfall

Your arms out

“And scene”

“Look into the camera”

“Now hold still”

“We’ve got you”

“One more time with anger, and sadness”

I believe you

“That will be all”
